For the next OS, you can use either LINUX or a LINUX-based OS, on a separate partition (also active). This partition doesn't have to be as big as the WINDOWS OS, because it's not as bloated as WINDOWS. 8GB to 15-20GB is more than adequate. More than 2 OS, is rather unneccessary, and in the long run, could cause more problems.
